September 16, 2015

Today when Lorissa arrived in the morning, Anna was in the midst of getting her head, renal and hip ultrasound from the bedside. We have yet to receive the results from them. Her VCUG is being put off until tomorrow.


Yesterday they also did a chest x-ray for Anna - to check her PICC line (which they ended up removing) but also to have a look at her lungs b/c of her failed attempts at being off CPAP. They are keeping a close eye on them. The nurse also heard a slight heart murmur, so she will be having an ECHO done tomorrow from the bedside. Little Miss Anna just keeps taking one step forward and three steps back! A little discouraging, but we continue to trust in the Lord that he has a plan in all this!

Anna slept most of the morning - but got a good snuggle with Lorissa for a few hours in the afternoon. 

Ryan came after work and we went and enjoyed an extra special served dinner at the Ronald McDonald House. It was delicious!

We got to see her first tub bath! So cute!

He had a good snuggle with Anna before he had to head home.

"Therefore the Lord waits to be gracious to you, and therfore he exalts himself to show mercy to you. For the Lord is a God of justice; blessed are all those who wait for him."
Isaiah 30:18

  2. Ah, the small steps forward and the 3 backwards that they take are very difficult to watch. May our Heavenly Father fill you with strength and patience as you watch this little precious bundle, standing beside her bed, when all you want to do is take her home and hold her all day.
